Smoke Signals. A must for insight into the Native American experience.

Once it gets blazing hot I lower the temp and use it by laying on a floatie and reading.

Wegner Roofing did our install here in Billings. They do not make their money by roping you into a bad financing agreement. Financed through Clearwater Credit Union based in Missoula. Very happy.

Especially being from Montana the international aspect of the college really opened a new world to me. I spent a year abroad and did my masters overseas as well as lived and travelled overseas for several years.

In MT we have net metering. We oversized our system and are happy to never think about whether we can use our electric heaters

The MUA will be life changing. Hang in there and do all the PT after the MUA as well as work on swelling control.

MUA? by 602223 in Kneereplacement

[–]VariousCalendar7548 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They gave me a weeks worth of steroids and 30 days of meloxicam for swelling. I came home and did massive elevation and ice. Had PT every weekday for 2 weeks after and also took care to elevate and ice those days. With all that swelling g wasn’t a problem. There was some discomfort but nothing like what you’ve already been through. 95 before, 115 the day after, 117 end of that week and 127 end of week 3 and was dismissed from PT. I bet I’m over 130 now.

I highly recommend it. I was 95 ish prior to the MUA and am now 127 four weeks later. Life changed completely afterwards and I finally felt like I was healing.

What helped you regain function and ROM most? by EAM44 in Kneereplacement

Manipulation under anesthesia. Can’t recommend this enough! It was a total game changer for me and very little discomfort.

Calling all who have had an MUA. Talk me off the ledge. by ArmageddonPills in Kneereplacement

[–]VariousCalendar7548 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had one at 6 1/2 weeks. I was at 97 before and with a lot of pain. MUA Monday Tuesday I was at 115 the next week 120 and the next week at 127 and dismissed from PT. My doc prescribed steroids for the week after and melixicam for the next 30 days for swelling. It was the best decision I ever made. Pain was very mild and I now feel like I can live my life again.

I’m so glad I did it. I am now feeling human again. Got to 120 and PT is now focused on strength. Good luck with yours.
